    Hiking

    Here lives the fearless figure "The Headless Horseman."

    The Headless Horseman is originally an undead revenant who appears in the folk tales of German-speaking regions. Similar figures exist in other areas as well, such as the Dullahan of Irish mythology.

    It is indeed reminiscent of the film: Sleepy Hollow.

    Under the washed-out root there is now even a small cave that you can look through.
